This model also has an active noise cancellation system, which uses a microphone in the roof lining and pumps out anti-noise via the sound-system.

I'll write a review soon, I went to the launch in France. Its a cracking engine, definitely doesn't feel like a 1.6 diesel.

23k for ex spec...

Puts it same price as a 116d msport. Honda have some balls to start thinking they are on a par with BMW, sure sub 100g co2, but that makes sense for a very small amount of people who commute into central london.

just get a second hand 2.2 diesel for a fraction of the price. i doubt the savings between the two will be great.

they way folk cry about derv you'd think that similarly spec'd bogo petrol engines were made from pure driving emotion, truth is, unless it's in a nice fast car, a small petrol engine is shite compared to a derv for day to day running about :salut:
